Boeing Phantom Badger

The Boeing Phantom Badger, usually just called the Badger, is a combat support vehicle built by Boeing in collaboration with MSI Defense Solutions. It was designed to fit inside the V-22 Osprey tiltrotor and is notable for its size and versatility; unlike earlier vehicles and competing offers, its design avoids non-standard equipment and is built from hardware that is already available. Mission-specific rear modules attach with six bolts at six connection points and can be changed in the field in 30 minutes or less, giving reconnaissance, combat search and rescue, casualty transport and explosive ordnance disposal versions, with mounts for a .50-caliber machine gun and a 40mm automatic grenade launcher. It is certified for use with United States Navy aircraft and is also used by the United States Air Force and by Marine Corps special operations.
